A: Generally speaking, fees for veterinary services are similar to those at other hospitals. In addition, a standard housecall fee is charged to cover the costs associated with the additional time and transportation expenses unique to a housecall service. However, you and your pet receive more personalized care because the veterinarian spends more time with you than at a typical hospital appointment. The housecall fee is only charged once per visit regardless of how many pets are seen.

Q: How are surgeries, dentals, radiographs, and more specialized care provided?

A: On occasion your pet may need surgery, dental care, or radiographs. Unlike many house-call practices that would refer your pet to another veterinarian, Dr. Bryant provides this care herself at a partner clinic. However, in the event your pet needs to see a specialist, Dr. Bryant will coordinate your pet's care. She will stay in contact with the specialist and monitor the case to ensure you continue to receive the same high level of personal attention that you can always count on from Dr. Bryant.
